Dorman - OE Solutions Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly P/N:686-277

Cut the labor out of a seized rear hub job with the Dorman - OE Solutions Wheel Bearing and Hub Assembly 686-277, a rear left loaded steering knuckle that drops in as a direct-fit replacement for the 2011-2019 Ford Explorer. On many Explorers rust builds between the steering knuckle and the wheel hub bearing until the two seize together — a common problem in Salt Belt regions that can also develop under normal use — often making the original knuckle difficult or impossible to salvage. This pre-assembled unit sidesteps that.

• Improved design: a patent-pending, proprietary coating helps prevent corrosion from forming between the surfaces, for a more permanent and reliable repair than the OE knuckle design.
• Saves labor: pre-assembled with the necessary components for a faster, simpler installation on specified Ford Explorer SUVs, with no shop press required.
• Location-specific: this kit includes a new rear left side knuckle, wheel bearing, hub and application-specific hardware.
• Trustworthy quality: backed by a team of product experts in the United States and more than a century of automotive experience.

Signs a rear hub bearing may need replacing include a humming or growling that changes with speed, wheel play, or a rear ABS fault.
